Please use the postcode checker below if you are unsure whether you reside within our practice area. For clinical safety reasons, we are unable to register patients who live outside the practice boundary. If you are on regular medication or have a history of serious illness, our receptionist will arrange an appointment for you with a doctor or nurse to record the necessary details about your medical history.

At Misbourne Practice, all our patients are allocated a named GP. This means you have a doctor who has overall responsibility for your care and support. However, you are welcome to see any GP within the practice at any time if you prefer. You will be informed of your named GP once your registration is complete.

We are always pleased to welcome new patients, provided you live within our practice area. Please visit our reception where our staff will be pleased to help you with the necessary paperwork. It would be most helpful if you could bring your NHS medical card. Each surgery has both male and female doctors, and you are free to consult with any doctor you wish.

Change of Circumstances

Please help us to keep your personal details up to date by notifying us immediately of any changes e.g. change of name, address, telephone number etc. If you move outside of our practice area, you should register with a new doctor as soon as possible so that your medical records can be sent on.

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one and are temporarily residing in the area you can receive emergency treatment from the practice. This is known as a temporary registration, and only lasts for a maximum of three months; after this time you will need to register permanently if you have an address in our catchment area or seek treatment from you registered GP surgery.

Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered. 

All patients at the Misbourne and St Giles surgeries have a named, accountable GP who is responsible for coordinating their care.  Your named Doctor is allocated to you by the Practice.

Irrespective of who your named GP is, you can still book appointments with a Doctor of your choosing.  Whilst you are entitled to consult any of the GPs in the Practice, we would encourage you to remain under the care of your named GP for continuity.

If you would like to know who your named accountable GP is, please ask a member of the Reception team.

There are adequate parking, access and toilet facilities for disabled people. The staff will be pleased to help, if needed.

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.

Proxy access allows an individual other than the patient to access and manage the patient’s online health account.

This is commonly used by parents or carers acting on behalf of children or vulnerable adults.

If you wish to request proxy access, please visit the Practice in person to complete the necessary forms and bring appropriate identification.
For parents, proof of parental responsibility is required – such as a birth certificate showing the parent’s name or official adoption documents.

Named Accountable GP

Take lead responsibility for ensuring that all appropriate services required under the contract with the practice are delivered to you.

Where required, based on the professional judgement of the ‘named’ GP, work with relevant associated health and social care professionals to deliver a multidisciplinary care package that meets your needs.

Ensure that your physical and psychological needs are recognised and responded to by the relevant clinicians in the practice

Ensure that patients over 75 years of age have access to a health check if requested, which is already a requirement of the GP contract regulations.

The Practice will ensure that there is a named accountable GP assigned to each patient.

New patients will be allocated a GP at the time of registration.

Your named accountable GP will be the same as your usual GP however, this does not affect your ability to see any GP of your choice as you currently do.

This does not prevent you from seeing any GP in the practice, as you may currently choose to do so. Neither does it guarantee you will see your named GP every time you visit the surgery or give you priority access over other patients to your named GP.

What does this mean?

Your named GP is responsible for coordinating any appropriate services required for your care, ensuring they are delivered when needed based on their clinical judgement.

However, please note that the role of the named GP does not:

• Involve taking responsibility for the care provided by other clinicians or healthcare professionals

• Mean they are personally available at all times or outside of normal working hours

• Require a change in their working schedule

• Limit your care to only that GP – you may still see any clinician within the Practice as appropriate

Do I need to do anything?

You do not need to take any action. If you would like to know who your named GP is, please speak to a member of our team when you next visit the surgery.

Please also be aware that if a GP leaves or joins the Practice, the health authority may reassign patient lists. As a result, your named GP may change. While we are unable to contact patients individually in these instances, we will publicise any partnership updates, and you are welcome to ask at reception if you would like to confirm your named GP.
